Good Evening,    Conditions were a little better on twenty meters.  That is not saying things were good.  Weak signals in summer noise is not optimum.  On forty meters conditions were less good.  More noise, some QSB, and weaker signals.  Both WM5F and K6PJV were down from normal.  Lightning

[Elecraft] Front end RF overload

2021-07-18 Thread Connie Marshall
While operating SO2R the 'HIGH RF" warning flashed on the K3 display. Before I could react and stop the transmission on the other radio the front end got zapped. The radio is down about 50 db on RX. I checked Ant 2 and RX antenna and the same problem so probably not the surge protectors on

Thanks to Don Wilhelm for his multiple suggestions on my problems with the K2 A to B kit. Turns out that my main error was insufficient stripping of the leads on the RFC 11 replacement toroid wire. Also I had some confusion deciphering the value of one of the resister packs. But in any case,

I am curious as to if/when a K4 kit will be available. I'm currently working a part time job (old retired guy here) to help gather funds to order a K4 and I would prefer a kit. It's a bit cheaper and I still enjoy building kits even if there is no soldering involved! 73, Bill NZ0T
